To Open up My Heart

(Anders Widmark/A. Lindahl)

The way I walk isn't me
The way I talk isn't me
To be one among equals
is what I always try to be

Why lie when you're out of lies
Why lie when you can't blindfold the truth

To open up my heart for you
ain't easy but I'd sure like to try
To open up my heart for you
ain't easy but sure I'll try

The one you see isn't me
The one you see isn't real
Someone told me to break free
Leave my worries all behind

You've given all the answers
You've made me see I was blind

To open up my heart for you
ain't easy but I'd sure like to try
To open up my heart for you
ain't easy but sure I'll try

Holly Hannah

(Anders Widmark/Steve Dobrogosz)

Holly Hannah, you can turn the pages back
to the apron women wore
Tied around her waist to please another jack
like your mother did before

Holly Hannah, look around
Find your freedom, freedom down in the ground
On a train that's headed homeward and bound
Look underneath your wedding gown

Liberation, Holly - nothing but a joke
Should a woman laugh or cry?
Will your pride swallow this pill or will you choke
and condemn the days gone by?

Holly Hannah...

Holly Hannah lies reflecting in the bath
on the wrinkle of her skin
Pretty bubbles seem to burst on her behalf
But this time the break is clean

Holly Hannah...

Oblivion

(Anders Widmark/Steve Dobrogosz)

I can't leave, I can't run
I can't do anything that feels like fun
I can't cry and I can't grieve
Won't you take me with you to Oblivion

Hard as nails, hard as hell
Hard as the wrong and of a loaded gun
Chase my tail, or lock my cell
Won't you take me with you to...

Oblivion, where trobles fly
Oblivion, where devils die
You break the law no matter what you try
Oblivion is where the greener grasses lie

I'm so tired, I'm so beat
I'm so heavy I can't move my feet
I'm so dead when day is gone
Won't you take me with you to Oblivion

Twelve Years

(Anders Widmark)

Instrumental

I Was Dreaming

(Anders Widmark/Maria Wande/Maria Björneberg)

The day I stopped dancing,
was a beautiful day
When sorrow found my home,
the air was crisp and clear

The day our love disappeared,
the sun glowed in my eyes
When I suddenly felt no fear,
my heart took to the skies

I was dreaming of you
all night long,
all night long
I said, all night long
I was calling to you
all night long,
all night long
I said, all night long

The day I found my new friend,
was full of grey demons
The day I found my new friend,
nothing really happened

The day I found my treasure,
the clouds piled upp all right
The day I found my treasure,
I saw lights, lights at night

I was dreaming of you...

The day oor love disappeared
the sun glowed in my eyes
When I suddenly felt no fear,
my heart took to the skies

I was dreaming of you...

Sexteen Weeks

(Anders Widmark)

Sexteen weeks and fourteen hours without you
So I wrote another love song - kind of blue
I wrote a song about the summer,
songs about fall
But you've heard them before, yes,
you've heard them all

Sexteen weeks and fourteen hours since you came
Sixteen moons outside my window - all the same
And I gave you every poem I could recall
But you've heard them before, yes,
you've heard them all

Another song that fades away
But you'll return
You'll return some day

I will write about the summer, songs about fall
But you've heard them before, yes,
you've heard them all
Many times before

Say Hello to Maria

(Anders Widmark)

Instrumental

You Don't Have to Say

(Anders Widmark/Steve Dobrogosz)

You don't have to say something nice
You just have to tell the truth
When she calls you in the morning
you feel so scared

You don't have to be someone great
or a hero in disguise
Did she love you without warning?
Your soul is bared

Can there be love so true?
You need to hide but she needs you
to be the one to trust in

You don't need to look in her eyes
if you look into her heart
Do you cry out for the daylight
when nights are shared?
